Comment on Steam winter sale is now live
thetrekkersparky@startrek.website 1 week agoThe regular price of Red dead 2 on steam is still the full release price even though the game came out 6 years ago. That way they can mark it 70% of and still overcharge.

I’m sort of going to blame Sony and Microsoft here as well. Since their game subscription services came out, games going on permanent discount seems to be a thing of the past. I reckon they’ve been told to do it just to make the subscription services look better value.
Back in the day, as far back as the ZX Spectrum for me, games would come out at full price and then a couple of years later would come out in a budget range. Even Nintendo would do it on the GameCube. Now it’s just full price forever because fuck you.
